White Heifer That Travelled in Darlington

nice atmosphere and friendly staff, food was ok in general but took 40 minutes to be served. Had to cancel two desserts as 50 minutes after ordering there was still no sign of them. Good pub for drinks but wouldn't eat here again

Chris was our server and he was very accomadating and kind, we shared a good laugh! Great food, and good atmosphere, lots of places to sit on a weekday lunchtime. Thanks for the amazing service!

It's our local pub and can honestly say that the team here are amazing. They put on kids/family events and the food and service are excellent.

Came for the Saturday afternoon kids party and it was great fun and atmosphere 👍

Great staff, very friendly & welcoming. The grandchildren loved it.

Kids party today ..... brilliant energetic fun for the kids we all really enjoyed it 👌 A big well done to everyone involved 👏

Excellent staff...food great and a lovely atmosphere 5*******

Wish Never have enough staff serving, often go in tea time & counted 11 people needed serving & took forever, seen people walk straight out.

Good food and good prices, staff were great

Quick service and it was very busy. Food is very basic and deep fried.

Came for lunch with my husband everything was fantastic will definitely return

Great food within a nice, relaxed atmosphere. Beer is pretty good too.

Came on Thursday which was steak night, lovely steaks, cooked to perfection and exactly how we’d asked, didn’t wait too long either,

Very nice gluten-free food and local

great staff chatty and professional

We have been here lots of times, the food never disappoints and the atmosphere is great. We did have to wait a little longer than usual as it was so busy but it was worth the wait! We will be back in a few weeks - thank you!

Perfect for a quieter drink or meal Always busy enough to have an atmosphere without being uncomfortably packed! Staff are pleasant, food is nice, reasonably priced. Just a shame I live the complete opposite end of the town!

Friendly staff, always plenty going on

great food , friendly staff and reasonable prices

We booked a table and asked for wheelchair access/ space which was perfect,the food was hot and tasty served quickly and with happy and helpful staff

The food is always on point, stunning options and a side salad option available when no chips are wanted and it wasn’t just lettuce, the bbq cauliflower was beautiful as always. I have been here a few times, I don’t mind the drive. Because the food is always lovely, the staff are always lovely too, coffee could be a bit warmer but I can cope

First time here daughters took me for birthday lunch very clean place staff very helpful and friendly order's we're taken through an app didn't wait long for food and drinks food was lovely would recommend

Carol's at Christmas was wonderful. Good pub to visit good ale.

The place was very busy and they could have done with more staff. However the staff were all still friendly and helpful as usual an did an excellent job at dealing with all the pressure.

Very well priced and very yummy food !! Great atmosphere and facilities too, just a really good local.

I left a new review but google reposted a very old review. NEW REVIEW On a recent visit I posted that the welcome was warm and friendly, Great choice of drinks. We were able to book a table to watch sports and used the App to order food which was good value amd arrived quickly. Plenty of TV screens to watch the football wherever you sat. Thoroughly enjoyed my visit amd Ill be back again soon.

Clean, tidy, excellent food & excellent staff. Did feel guilty as couldn't leave tip through credit card and didn't have any cash at all but will definitely make up for it when we return.

New Year’s Eve 80’s disco was really good and the atmosphere, service and staff were excellent

We popped in here after a walk for convenience. We had a 3 year old with us so was abit nervous incase it was busy and he was loud. There where plenty of seating areas so we could hide out the way. The place was nice and clean and the food was delicious! Well priced and came fast too. Would definitely go again.

First family Christmas Day dinner out and it was excellent food was lovely and staff were amazing thankyou to all and I would definitely eat out for Christmas dinner in the future would also recommend to friends and family.

Booked a table for 2 for a romantic meal with my wife. Requested a table seat away from the door. We got a seat near the window that looks into the entrance of the pub and we were placed next to a table of 10 people so not what we were hoping for at all. Nice food ruined by thoughtless table reservation!

A decent pub on the outskirts of Darlington. Been here a few times. Serve good beer and good food the service is quick with friendly staff. It's a decent place to go for food and a drink.

Kids party yesterday morning fab morning good day n food after thank u to nic and collette 4 a lovely day xx pizza amazing xx

Great night at the White Haifer, Aycliffe Bus Preservation Society had race night to raise funds which the pub hosted and it was fabulous. Staff are so friendly, food was fabulous as well as drinks aplenty to choose from. Everyone enjoyed the night, we surely will go back there again. Highly recommended 😊😊

Excellent and Friendly Staff , Great Atmosphere. Food is of very high quality and reasonably priced .All round great place to come and relax .They show the football also which is a bonus.

Absolute joke of a ‘pub’. Used to be decent but gone downhill in the last year or so from a staff and service perspective.

Was fab to let me have some fun as an adult just for once

Beautiful food, great service, well worth the Price. Thank you to Chris who made us feel welcome and at home.

Large modern pub order at bar or table. Food hot brought to table and trimmings. Reasonable price good friendly staff.

Excellent service from Chris and the team

A lovely warm welcome , it wasn't busy so we had a choice of seats, we ordered via the app. Service was prompt, food was lovely thank you will visit again

All good improved since last visit,food well cooked etc ,hot .

Good price food especially with discount. Staff were wonderful. Lovely warm restaurant

Lovely food - good festive burger. excellent service with a smile from Lorna

Splendid. Festive burger and great service.

Lovely attentive service from Chris! Good food, would recommend to everyone!

Came here for the mixed grill but as ut was popylar o steaks to be hadd so settled for a burgwr instead. Stayed on for the buskers afterwards which was also very good. As a big Hobgoblun fan asked if I could buy one of their glasses off them but alas no joy which is a shame as I would have paid more than it cost them.

I recently had a sirloin steak and am happy to give a great review. Cooked just as I asked and, as always, staff were extremely friendly. Thank you.

Great service, nice choice of beers and very reasonably priced food. We will return again soon.

Lovely food friendly and helpful staff

Great service by very friendly staff

Hadn’t been here for a long time and called in for lunch. I went for the mega mixed grill which was hot and fresh and cooked as per instruction. Girlfriend had the vegetarian cheddar leek and potato pie and judging by the empty plate she had no complaints. Staff were attentive and all around provided a good experience.

Lovely meal with family at the White Heifer. Can’t fault it! The staff are friendly, service is great and the food is delicious.

Food ordered and arrived within 15 minutes which was very good. The wait at the bar for drinks however is unacceptable, waiting for nearly 10 minutes is not really acceptable. Only one girl serving and she was under pressure but she really performed well. Really need more bar staff.

Chris was outstanding again, always goes above and beyond with our 3 children thank you

The pub itself is immaculately clean, it’s a shame because this food in there use to be nice around covid time, I came in today & the food was cold, overcooked & tasteless. Nevertheless the staff were lovely & our hot drinks were too.

Went here for the first time today (ladies what lunch) the surroundings and atmosphere were lovely. The staff were lovely and friendly. The food was well presented when it came out. Unfortunately, the steak was the worst I have ever experienced. I could not chew it at all as it was so full of grissle. The steak was cooked perfectly, it was very tasty, but all except 3 mouthfuls were impossible to chew and had to be deposited out of my mouth on to the plate. Had anyone come to check if our meal was ok, I would have complained, but as we were not given any attention once the meal was paid for and served, we were not given the opportunity. It’s a shame as it looks a lovely place and the staff were very nice whilst they were interacting with us. Hopefully if we go again, we will get a better quality of steak.

lovely crisp pint (£6).the barman was great. mixed crowd in getting dinner

great place and staff are the best

Service was a bit slow, but not the worst, our requests had been read and taken care of to the best of their abilities, food was lovely, though the children's chicken dippers were a bit over cooked the kids didn't seem to notice, I was missing the sauce from my sunday dinner and we would have liked a bit more gravey. But I really am nit picking here, overall it was a good experience and the staff were lovely.

The food here is SO good. Nice interior and friendly staff, will deffo be back :)

Friendly staff and good service.

chris was a lovely server, very kind and helpful

Lovely atmosphere and excellent service. Chris was incredibly helpful

Chris was was our server he made sure all our needs were met and was attentive and friendly. TJ followed that up to check everything was good with our meal which it was, he was very polite.

TJ is a very courteous young man and always smiles and has time for the pubs clients. He's hardworking and always looks smart

Service was great, TJ was very good. Burgers and chips were slightly over cooked

Served by Chris, professional and friendly

service overall great waitresses excellent, food was great very tasty was a little loud as had live singer with guitar in the bar area, but overall enjoyed food and service especially after an 8hr drive up from south wales the day before (should have been 5 + 1/2 hours) to visit family.

Lovely staff and very friendly, big thank you to Lorna for the service

Lovely local pub, staff very friendly and welcoming- great value food. Sunday dinner really tasty. Staff all to be commended in all roles especially Chris

Staff were really friendly and helpful, Chris as our server was very attentive. Food was good too!

Great place to eat and is always nice and tidy the food has been good when going at both quiet and busy times. Staff friendly and nice to have a chat with. Will return soon

Great atmosphere... very tasty food... brilliant service and the choice of food and drink is fantastic. Definitely be back

Short staffed, long wait for food that wasnt worth waiting for really. I had a withered looking prawn salad, my partner, a rock hard steak pie. Drinks expensive, no, we'll not be back for another few years !

Always nice to stop here onway home from the movies for a meal & a drink. Good food, atmosphere & service.

Great staff friendly good meal and large venue. Lorna was very helpful. Good crowd excellent value for money.

This is our new local pub since moving to Darlington in the last 6 months. The staff here are always really pleasant and go out of their way to help, especially Chris who is a member of the team there . Food is really good, atmosphere is always upbeat and we enjoy visiting this place.

Great service! Prompt and efficient customer service from Chris

The food was fine but it took the best part of half an hour to come out which was way too long.

Great location, great service, nice atmosphere, food is good, too.

What a disappointment 😞 The waitress came up and asked if everything was OK. My mother said, "No, it is absolutely disgusting," to which the waitress replied, "Well, if it's disgusting, you don't have to eat it." Mum replied, "I'm won't eat it." The waitress walked without even asking what the issues were. So, my wife and mother had the Sunday Lunch, Roast Beef. The beef was dry, tough, and stringy. The roast potatoes had a strange taste, which left a bad after taste. The Yorkshire pudding was so dry that the top half was brittle, yet the base of also tough and hard to cut. On the plus side, my potatoe soup was nice, although there was very little of it.

Kirstie was lovely and very helpful

Great as usual. Lovely atmosphere, was quiz night but wasn't super busy and food was still delivered quickly and it wasn't too loud even with quiz on.

Did visit from Finland this Pub and it was wonderfuly! Did have good right cooked steak with chips. If you ever visit at Darlington, you need to go this pub, have few drinks and food! Staff is also very nice and friendly!❤️

Sunday lunch was good and the staff were very friendly and helpful nothing was too much trouble even though it was busy

Ausome pub it's like home from home very friendly atmosphere food out of this world staff r very pleasant & always serve u with a smile & always helpful

Very enjoyable evening, good food and good company

Great food. Server Chris was very friendly and checked that we were happy with our meals.

We visited for a work get together. We were able to order both at the bar and via the app. The team double checked they had all our meals so that they were able to be served together. Very prompt, beautiful food and tables were cleared after we finished.

Staff are always very friendly, helpful and polite. Food is fantastic, it’s always piping hot and fresh. Great value for money.

Lovely food and great chatty staff yesterday and being a firefighter took advantage of the blue light discount easy 5 stars from us

Good food and excellent service on a busy evening. Thanks especially to Lorna for a friendly welcome and great communication!

I booked online for a family birthday meal. The seating area was perfect for us, the barmaids showed our seats and helped with drink orders, they Were lovely and polite. We went over to place our food order they were helpful, and didn't rush us let us take our time. The food only took around 10/15 minutes if that, but for 7 of us all with different meals including steak I thought was very fast. The waiters who brought the food were happy to help with anything we needed. Kept coming and making sure we were happy. The food was very well presented and cooked we really enjoyed it. Once food was done they cleared up the plates quite quickly which was great as we ordered puddings, which were fantastic for the price. We ordered a range of different puddings so were able to see most of the range, and no complaints with them. Overall the experience was perfect and we will happily be returning in the future. Thank you again.

Can't comment on food, just popped in for a quick pint and was genuinely shocked to be charged £6.10 for a pint of crux campo! Madness! staff were nice thou, but I clearly don't get out enough if this is the going price for 1 pint!

Food was great and a fantastic table service from Chris!

All round good pub for sport food drink Good Staff and Manager.

We love The White Heifer. The staff are always really helpful. I have a disabled young man and he is treated with respect and care. Food is lovely.

Staff were super helpful and friendly. I would travel from aycliffe to come here more because of those two ladies.

Had a fantastic time at Stevie B’s family quiz. We come on the last Friday of the month (5pm) every month and we always have a great time at the quiz. Staff are always welcoming and there’s always something for kids and adults.
